Am a bit surprised that we are this weak with so much rain coming to the wet areas the next several days.
The just updated NAM has increased rain amounts in northeast IA.
Still tons of rain almost everywhere on the latest 12z GFS thru 16 days.
Guess we don't have to worry about a drought for a long time.

Last 18z GFS still has tons of rain the next 2 weeks:
Forecast Hour: 384

Looky here though on the experimental week 3 and week 4 projection, still very warm but NOT wet. The N.Plains to Upper Midwest to Great Lakes have normal precip but south of that is below average.
What are the chances of that verifying?
The warm part is probably close to 70%.
The dry part? Maybe 55%?
If we get inches of rain prior to this, it will not be AS bullish. However, if temperatures are A to MA over a large part of the Cornbelt and we have below normal rains(lets say for the 2 week period noted in this outlook) it will turn bullish.
Note the markets reaction today to tons of rain coming up...........despite a bullish crop report yesterday. So its rain makes grain mentality right now.
